I'm doing the open track, and the exhibition race. Definitely see you there.

hehhe, yeah, with the setup fabian has done on it, i bet it can hndle 160 through the entire turn 1 and probably turn 2 also, but im sure i can't yet, at least without having to cleaning my pants after it :-)
my first goal is to get the stcloud lap time record, and since i was only a few seconds off with my 95, im sure it will only take a few sessions to get close to it with this car...but i have to learn the cars personality first.

Now that you don't need to spend so much time fixing yours (since it's already killer) you can help me mod mine right?
Actually ever since you played with the pills and I cleaned the BOV it's killer. You need to open a garage or something and start charging.

Damian.
Congrats, You must come to MRR next year. So my CYM won't be alone. I am thinking way ahead in the spring to do some track time at Road America. May be the May BMW club event... come on down!

>>If I were you, I'd be on eBay looking for a decent used trailer.
heheh i know, but even if i get a trailer i dont have anything to pull it with, so that combo of trailer/puller is another adventure for a later date.... i do pretty well, but im by no means a rich guy, so i have to save up for that combo.
>>BTW, I'll be looking forward to your new movies.
thanks :-)
